Pei Qantong happened to be feeling depressed. When he met such a group of brothers who he could talk to, he naturally had nothing to hesitate and turned around and headed straight to the restaurant they were talking about.

Despite the current chaos of war, the Zuixian Restaurant on the bank of the Yangtze River is still packed with guests, all of whom are distinguished generals. Naturally, the store owner did not dare to neglect them and moved them to the most luxurious private room upstairs.

At that moment, several people ordered food and drinks and started drinking while admiring the scenery of the Yangtze River.

Zuixian Tower is a six-story wooden building. They are now sitting at the highest point, with an unobstructed view of the scenery. They were originally very comfortable, but no one was interested. Everyone was sighing. After drinking a few glasses of wine,

Suddenly there was the sound of pipa playing, and some people even burst into tears.

Pei Qiantong came downstairs with a knife and found a father and daughter who were singing. He picked them up and chopped them down, and then returned upstairs dejectedly.

When Sima Dekan saw that he was covered in blood, he comforted him: "Brothers, don't think so much. If you are drunk today, you still don't know if you will survive tomorrow."

Meng Bing sighed: "I miss my brothers and sisters, my children, and my parents. I don't know if I can go back in this life."

"How to go back?" Yuan Li sneered: "This world belongs either to Li Yuan and Li Mi or to Qin Hu. I heard that Qin Hu is about to proclaim himself emperor, and I feel really awkward."

Linghu Xingda said: "Li Yuan is proclaimed emperor, Qin Hu is also proclaimed emperor, and Li Mi is also proclaimed emperor. In short, nothing will happen without our emperor. The north is gone, and we can't go back. I tell you, I would rather

I would rather die in the north with my family than stay in this stupid place."

"Do you think you are the only one who thinks so?" Pei Qantong smiled coldly: "I just went to the palace and heard some discussions, and I was wondering whether to report it."

"What discussion?"

Pei Qantong said: "Actually, I have heard similar discussions a lot. Now some low-level generals in Xiaoguo Army are openly discussing escape in the military camp. You can hear it wherever you go. I just pretend not to hear it.

That’s it. But I’m afraid now that they won’t betray anyone even when discussing this kind of thing. In the event of a large-scale escape, can our heads be saved?”

"this--"

Meng Bing hurriedly stopped: "Don't report it. You don't know something. A few days ago, there was a maid beside Empress Xiao. She reported it to the emperor once, but she was quartered by five horses. The emperor insisted that she spread rumors and caused trouble. Isn't she guilty?

Pardon. Do you know what Queen Xiao said?"

"When Empress Xiao heard that the palace maid had been killed, she warned the people around her: Now that the matter has reached this point, no one can save it, so why bother saying more and only making the emperor sad?"

"What the hell, if you report, you will die. If you don't report, the nine tribes may be exterminated. What do you think is our way of survival? Do we really count one day at a time?" Pei Qantong slammed his fist on the table.

Everyone turned their eyes to Sima Dekan.

As the boss, Sima Dekan has no morals and incompetence, but he has been in charge of the Xiaoguo Army for a long time, and his prestige is not low, but when faced with such a difficult situation, he is completely helpless and has no idea.

It took him a long time before he could hold back a sentence: "Brothers, if others can run away, we can run away too. There is no such thing as loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. Who would be loyal to such a foolish king? I think we can just run away together."

"

When everyone heard what he said, there was a look of surprise on everyone's face. In fact, they had had this idea for a long time, but they didn't dare to mention it to Sima Dekan for fear that he would still be foolishly loyal to Yang Shou, but he took the initiative to say it today.

, which solved everyone’s biggest knot.

"The flowers that have been waiting for your words have withered. Boss, we all listen to you." Linghu Xingda put one leg on the chair: "I have wanted to do this for a long time."

"Yes, this foolish king will die sooner or later by swordsmanship. It is his own fault. Why should we be loyal to him?"

"If he gives up on the world, the world will naturally give up on him. Let's run away."

Pei Qantong suddenly said: "Don't be anxious, everyone. Even if you want to run away, you must consider Zhou Xiang. If we are like Dou Xian and others, and run away like blind flies without thinking about the future, the end can be imagined."

.”

Sima Dekan hurriedly agreed: "No, yes, it must be, there must be some plan. You can't just run around, right? Dou Xian was caught up and killed. General Pei, do you have any specific ideas?"

"There is nothing too specific." Pei Qantong touched his chin and said, "But I think one thing is indispensable, that is, there is strength in numbers. If we pull away ten thousand people, we will be overtaken by then.

, what is there to be afraid of? We brothers are all warriors who crawled out from the dead, so are we still afraid of war?"

"Ten thousand people?" Everyone looked at him in surprise.

"It must not be lower than this number. Have you ever thought about it? We are not going back to beg for food. If we want to survive, we must fight against those traitors, seize their territory, and carve out a piece of the world. Even if you have no ambitions, from here

When you go back, Du Fuwei will let you cross the Huaihe River, but will Li Mi let you take the road to Henan?"

"this--"

Pei Qantong's words suddenly made them realize that yes, escaping was not just about running away, but about going back through many obstacles. How could they run without anyone?

Dou Xian's fellow was hiding in Tibet for three days before he was overtaken and killed. He didn't even escape through the ravines. It was obvious that this road was not feasible.

"How many people do each of you have?" Sima Dekan asked.

"There are so many people. A hundred thousand Xiaoguo troops are under the command of your General Sima, but is this useful? You know who wants to run and who doesn't. What if the news is leaked?" Meng Bingli

Licking his lips.

"Take away all our cronies. Each one can get seven or eight hundred." Linghu Xingda said: "I think the most important thing now is to contact some more generals in the army. In short, the more people the better, go

Damn it, if the mountains and rivers don’t change, who doesn’t have a home yet, and must he die holding on to the emperor’s lap?”

Pei Qantong said: "What you said reminds me. Didn't I just say that I heard Zhao Xingshu and Yang Shilan talking about homesickness in the square today? Later, I will go to Zhao Xingshu and his family to sit down."

Sit down, didn't they say there was a party? By then I'd be drunk and in a mood, and I'd have talked about everything."

"Okay, God is really helping me." Everyone cheered in unison.

Pei Qantong left in a hurry without drinking too much in Zuixian Tower, because he saw that it was getting dark and was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with Zhao Xingshu, even though he was not invited at all.

Pei Qantong thought about a lot of things to say along the way, but when he arrived at the door of Zhao Xingshu's house, he seemed to have forgotten them all, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
